The G2 is a great little bow with many impressive features that are normally found on bows that cost over a hundred dollars more. Its compact design makes it excellent for many bowhunting situations and yet it is not a " super light" in terms of weight which makes it a bit more stable than other short bows on the market. I also have to agree that its overall design and built-in accessories do make it one of the quieter, more vibration free bows on the market.
